Britain’s Got Talent auditions will be taking place in Skegness this August - have you got what it takes to make it on to the show?

The popular ITV talent show will be holding auditions at Richmond Holiday Park on Thursday August 4, starting at 7pm.

Contact Noel Gee for an audition spot on 01522 722771, or send an email to info@noelgee.co.uk.

Two days later, on Saturday August 6, open auditions will be held at the Skegness Aquarium marquee from 9am until 4pm.

Anyone can just turn up on the day, and auditions will be held on a first come, first seen basis. Under 16s must be accompanied by an adult.

From 5.30pm on the day, further auditions will be held at The Big Top Showbar Variety night - contact Matthew (01754 228200) to apply for a slot.

Audition slots can also be applied for via the website, www.itv.com/talent.

Following the auditions, successful acts will be in with a chance of securing a place at one of the judges’ auditions in 2017.

The show is open to any performer of any age, with any talent - all you need is a skill and star quality which they think will impress.

Anything goes - from magicians to comedians, drag acts to singers, and acrobats to animals.

Executive Producer, Amelia Brown, said “We’ve had some amazing winners over the last ten series, from this year’s champion Richard Jones, who was the first magician to ever win the show, right through to Paul Potts, Diversity and Collabro.

“We can’t wait to see what talent Skegness has to offer.

“Anyone can apply - there is no age limit and we are looking for all kinds of talents, so if you feel you have something special to show us then make sure you apply. You never know where it might take you.”
